If the slide is caused by the momentum required to secure the ball, then it's a legal play. If the player is adding momentum (rolling, pushing with the legs, etc.), then it's travelling.

Also, if you're on your feet, and you slide with possession, it IS a travel. On your bottom, back or stomach to slide with possession is NOT a travel.
